- “Gameplay 5 stars.”
- “Adds are optional, gameplay is fun and the art is cute.”

Users report significant stability issues with the game, including frequent freezes during ads and gameplay, particularly at critical stages like boss battles. These glitches often require a complete shutdown of the device and hinder progress, leading to frustration among players. Despite the game's fun elements, the instability detracts from the overall experience, with some users threatening to uninstall if problems persist.
- “I don't even really mind watching 12 ads (literally 12 ads) every battle, sometimes more if you get battle cards, but the last 4 days every ad that plays is some octopus game and that freezes, never completes and locks up my phone requiring a shutdown and reboot.”
- “The game freezes and the hero has no effect on the opponents and vice versa.”
- “However, what stops this from being 5 stars is that it glitches at the boss stage of level 29 and my character stops throwing things at him and cannot progress to level 30.”
